Question 6: What are the researcher’s conclusions? Summarize them as best you can. Does the researcher "qualify" the findings (describe the limits of the research)? What are a couple of those limitations? The results from a statistical test indicate that the difference in opinion of jealousy-evoking behaviors within a relationship between the two sexes was not statistically significant. The researchers conclude that jealousy is more likely to occur if an individual perceives his/her partner as less committed (Pytlak, Zerega, & Houser, 2015). Secondly, most jealousy-evoking partners use jealousy to strengthen the relationship rather view jealousy in a negative connotation (Pytlak, Zerega, & Houser, 2015). The researchers qualify their findings in a section called, “Limitations and Future Research.” Here they discuss the parameters of the lengths of relationships within the study and how using couples in longer relationships could affect the study. Also, the researchers only solicited one partner’s opinion, which could be bias as two people in the same relationship may not share the same view of
